Fender Boxer Telecaster HH, Torino Red

Full Description

Ferocious tone

For a sound that blazes through the speakers, the Boxer humbucking pickups are truly magnificent. These high output humbuckers project a truly decimating sound that encompasses punchy lows, meaty mids, and gloriously clear highs. They can be pushed with either smooth, glassy tones or crunchy distortion and will always promise to thrive. Better still, with handy coil-splits, you can experience the wonders of single-coil sounds too. But the showstopper really is the TBX control (Treble Bass Expander). This innovative mod is a vintage component that still accommodates the needs of modern players, allowing you to adjust the tone of your guitar in ways unlike any other tone control. As you turn the tone knob up, your sound will be blessed with more bass and treble, resulting in an undeniably dynamic and versatile tone.

Built for effortless playing

If you're going to emit a hot and fiery tone, you'll want immense playability. Fender's scrupulous craftsmanship and meticulous attention detail never falters, and this instrument is no different. In fact, it has resulted in a sumptuous medium "C" shaped neck. Crafted from maple, this Tele's neck is dreamy to play, sitting comfortably on your palm as you rocket from fret to fret. And maple's sonic capabilities don't fall short either. This tremendous tonewood produces a focused, tight tone that lends itself to dynamic gigs. It is loud, bright, and minimises any feedback, so you won't be left with that dreaded muddy sound. Only pure tonal excellence will flow from the strings. The balance of brightness and resonance that a rosewood fretboard brings will then take your performance to new heights. The sky's the limit when you have such a magnificent, even response right from the dark bass frequencies to the sparkling highs.

A brilliant basswood body

Complementing the maple neck and rosewood fretboard is a body crafted from basswood. A tone that is balanced yet has an undercurrent of warmth is exactly what is needed for an immersive, mesmerising performance. And that is exactly what basswood provides. Working superbly well with the humbuckers, you can be sure that this reliable tonewood will deliver a stunning depth of sound and be comfortable to play. You couldn't ask for more in an electric guitar body.
